How to Send Mail to Someone at Victoria County Jail (JailATM conversion, effective Jan 1, 2021)

As of January 1, 2021, Victoria County Jail converts all non-legal, non-commercial mail into electronic format. The jail uses JailATM as its vendor for this process. Stick to the approved options below to avoid delays or returned mail.

You can send non-legal, non-commercial mail electronically through JailATM.com. This is the vendor Victoria County Sheriff's Office directs families to use, so if you're sending a standard message or letter, this is one of your go-to options.

Your other option is mailing a physical letter to the vendor for processing. Use this exact format (including the INMATE ID line) so your mail reaches the right person: JailATM.com - Victoria County Jail INMATE ID: INMATE FULL NAME 2830 S. Hulen St., Box 809 Fort Worth, TX 76109

If you're sending mail directly to the jail's street address, include the person's name and CR Number. Use this format: Victoria County Jail, 101 N Glass Street, Victoria, Texas 77901. The name and CR Number help staff match your mail to the right person in custody.

Whichever approved channel you use, expect screening. All mail goes through security review, and anything that doesn't meet the jail's requirements gets returned to sender.

Don't count on tracking or delivery confirmation. The jail says it cannot guarantee delivery confirmation of any book, magazine, or mail item - so even after you send something, you may not get firm confirmation it arrived.

Practical Tips and Limits

• ✓ Write the mailing address and your return address legibly on the same side of the envelope.
• ✓ Keep the outside of the envelope clean: no drawings or writing beyond the addressing information.
• ✓ When sending directly to the jail street address, include the person’s name and CR Number.
